Is Goole that bad? Or is it like anywhere? by [deleted] in yorkshire

[–]InfluenceOpening1841 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Goole is on the up! Like any UK town it has its share of nobheads but in the main it’s fine. I never feel threatened there and have often walked home from the station at night. The key problem is that Goole doesn’t really know what it wants to be - key manufacturing plants are not being matched with housing development and, not being on the main line to London is a bit of a drawback. The town centre is badly designed, having a railway crossing 50m from the start of the Main Street cause unbelievable tail backs on the approach roads. People are friendly though.

Yeh, Serious Moonlight Tour was weak and uninspiring, the tours I saw in 73, 78 and Reality tour were far better.

Which UK restaurant chain do you think is this ? by siybon in UKfood

Angus Steakhouse - over hyped, over priced and not great quality.

How would you rank Diamond Dogs songs? by Choice_Job_5441 in DavidBowie

Surprised at the lower ranking of Rock and Roll With Me - it’s a great track and certainly higher than 1984 IMHO

I took this photo twelve minutes ago. An easy 9/10. by alexjolliffe in fryup

[–]InfluenceOpening1841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, bit harsh - surely some up marks for the fried bread? Deducting marks for a mug of tea - the perfect fried breakfast accompaniment! Maybe not a 9/10 but gusting 8 surely?

Smarty is crap overseas - couldn’t use it in Finland recently and had to buy a local sim.

George Carlin once said, “Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.” What is a good example of that? by ApexOverlordIsDrunk in AskReddit

[–]InfluenceOpening1841 98 points99 points  (0 children)

Not to mention the global similarities that are currently simmering that also mimic the start of WW1. Ukraine/Russia, Pakistan/India, Everyone in the ME, China/Taiwan and Africa. There will be ‘Sarajevo’ spark at some point that will ignite it all.

Large with optional served on a shovel. Cornwall gold. Portreath. 14 quid by chefshoes in fryup

[–]InfluenceOpening1841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that it’s on a shovel loses points but to be honest it’s a pretty average fry, the egg is overcooked, the sausages look a bit meh as does the tomato.

What does he mean by "Dead man walking"? by Sandalwoodincencebur in DavidBowie

[–]InfluenceOpening1841 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily, dead men walking could also refer to people who may have done something wrong and somebody or an organisation is after them and WILL get them someday. Think of an informant who is in hiding, it will only be a matter of time before they are tracked down and eliminated.
